Karen has been MIA!!!

I have officially fired Karen from the blogging world. I have not been keeping a very good eye on her because she hasn't sent a new blog since JANUARY!!! So I told her she no longer can blog. I don't think she was very upset. It takes her a long time to type. So I am going to try to do a better job than she has done in the past. Our kids were suppose to go the the pumpkin patch today on their field trip but it obviously was canceled due to the rain. So I got to stay at work today and unload the new merchandise. I opened up 7 boxes from DCWV. Also all the new K&Company stuff came in. We are going to price it tomorrow and have it out. Great new albums, papers, embellishments and cute little organizing bags. Don't you just love to organize? We also got in the deep cut blades for the Cricut Machines. Our Love To Crop Hate To Shop crop is already half filled so if you are interested in coming you need to call ASAP. The crop will be like our Mega Crops it will be on Friday, November 28th the day after Thanksgiving. This will be our last Mega Crop for the year. We will be back on schedule in January for more of them.

Have you all signed up on www.cropscene.com website to get entered to win free stuff? This is a customer appreciation thing from EK Success, K& company, Inkadinkado and Martha Stewart. They are drawing a name everyday and giving away prizes. All you do is sign up on that site and you are entered. Also they are sending us Make N Takes for November 15th to do. You don't have to plan to come on November 15th to sign up on their website.

We are still receiving new products from the CHA show in July. Karen said we are expecting some more seasonal items in. I told her we need to be thinking about a end of year inventory sale. With the POS system we have to scan every item in the computer to make sure we have the correct count. YIKES!!! SCARY!!! So I would like to be low on our inventory so we don't have to be here for a week like we did last January when we got the POS machine in the first place. What a nightmare that was. So Karen is thinking about it not sure what she has planned. Like usual it will be last minute but worth the wait.

We still have room in our Christmas in October workshop. Great projects this year. Even my favorite the Bazzil In Stitch's sewing. I just love to sew on my pages and use all the great flower templates and borders they have. I feel like I can really sew!!! Not that I am gonna start making clothes or anything. It is on Saturday, October 18th 5:00-9:00p.m. We will have lite snacks, drinks, door prizes and a lot of fun. All materials are supplied for 13-15 different projects. We are even gonna do the one that Karen needed all the Sonic cup holders for. The cost is $30.00 all you need to bring is your workshop kit to complete the projects.

Well enough blogging for me today. This has taken me about 6 minutes to do I am sure Karen would have been here for about 1 hour. She should have paid more attention during typing class. And I should have paid more attention in English, sorry Mrs. Fontaine!!!

C-ya later, Mary/Daisy Lane
